But she took four consecutive games there to start turning things around, and wound up winning 12 of the match's last 14 games to extend her bid to win her first Grand Slam title.

Serena Williams at No. 28 doesn't make sense. She'll face top players early in the women's draw and prevent better players from getting to the later rounds -- where they should be competing. That is what the seeding system is all about!
Serena Williams was seeded 28th for the U.S. Open, which stuck with its policy of following the rankings instead of taking into account players' past performances.
Kim Clijsters is one win from her second straight U.S. Open title after beating Venus Williams in three sets Friday for her 20th straight victory at Flushing Meadows.
